Hello guys: I recently installed FC 5 linux and installed R from source. It installed fine, but there was an oddity that I want to report. Although I used
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/R-2.3.0 make it did not seem to recognize the prefix and went ahead and installed it in the source directory -- I usually ``tar xzf'' it to my home directory and run the installation scripts from there (as root) to install to /usr/local/R-2.3.0 This procedure worked fine on earlier versions of Fedora as well as on debian and other distros. Wonder if this is a gcc-4.1 or GNU make issue. Any feedback will be much appreciated. Tx. Sudipto. ***************************************************************** Sudipto Banerjee, PhD, Assistant Professor, Div. of Biostatistics, University of Minnesota, A460 Mayo Building, MMC 303, 420 Delaware Street, SE, Minneapolis, MN 55455. ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
